Benz favors AM and FM By ANTHONY RAY EVERETTE Staff Writer | am not only in favor of a FM station at ECU but | am in favor of an AM station too would like to see WECU AM continue and grow just as much as | would ike to see the founding of an FM station.’ Those are the words of Dr. Carlton Benz speaking on behalf of his feelings about the campus radio. station and its efforts to establish an FM station here and close down the AM station. Dr. Benz is the Director of Closed Circuit Television and Associate Professor of Drama and Speech He came to East Carolina in 1966 from Wayne State College in Wayne, Nebraska where he was Asst. Professor of Speech. Dr. Benz received his BFA degree from Ohio University, in Athens, Ohio. He earned his Masters Degree from the University of Wisconsin in Madison, Wisconsin Dr. Benz feels that an FMstation would not take the place of an AM station. “WECU AM provides an excellent training ground for students to train and learn to gain experience in broadcasting.” Dr. Benz also mentioned that Mr. Jacobson, owner of WOOW, recently told him that there are a great number of D.J.'s that have first gained experience at WECU added that many former WECU-AM-ers are working for stations throughout the state and beyond the state Dr. Benz feels that sales is another extremely important area in broadcasting He said “experience in this area at WECU-AM is presently possible for interested students. | would like to see the largest number of students gain practical experience in WECU AM,” he continued Dr. Benz concluded, “Let's keep WECU AM and continue to aid in its improvement and expansion, and go on and work for an FM station to serve the community as well SGA votes against the override of fine arts veto By SUSAN QUINN Assistant News Editor The SGA Legislature voted not to override SGA president, Bob Lucas’ veto of the fine arts bill. The bill which would transfer students funds to the fine arts departments, was finally killed with a vote of 21 against, 17 for and 3 absentions for overriding Lucas’ veto Concerning the overriding of his veto Lucas said, “My major concern is setting a dangerous precedent. In allowing this bill we lose input, the legislature as a whole will not have input on the expenditures.” Also concerning the overriding of the veto, Bobby Sullivan of the School of Music said, “These funds for students, better. This bill has been supported by students other than fine arts majors.” After the final decision to not override the bill was voted on, the bill automatically became dead In other business of the legislature a bill stating the requirements of SGA recognized organizations was passed and will become effective Fall quarter 1974 Also an appropriation of $1,000 to the publications board was passed to cover the increased printing costs of the student handbooks Monday was the last of the legislature meetirigs this school year and the last of fifty straight meetings presided by speaker Braxton Hall.

Johnson, VA Regional Office Director Winston-Salem, N.C., noted that VA now accords full recognition to incomes and expenses of both veteran and spouse in determining ability to repay loan obligations. Johnson said VA is required by law to determine if contemplated terms of repayment bear a proper relation to the veteran's anticipated income and expenses before approving the loan. “But while the spouse’s income has always been considered,” Johnson explained, “loan rules sometimes had the effect of discounting the spouse's income. Now, however, no such local rules are imposed, and the spouse’s income is given full consideration.” VA guarantees 60 percent (maximum $12,500) of GI home loans private lenders make to servicemen, veterans and eligible spouses of World War II, Korean and post-Korean Conflicts and the Vietnam era.

One course at East Carolina has been successful in providing students an outlet by which they may express themselves and be exposed to other's point of view. The course, “Black Literature in America,” is offered by the English department and is structured so that the class member is cast both as the teacher and the student. “| hope that the class will provide a means of exchanging attitudes and ideas between the students,” said Dr. Norman Rosenfeld, instructor of the class. “We learn from everyone’s reaction to the ideas expressed in class.” As the quarter progresses, students prepare committee reports on subjects of interest to the class. These run from a discussion of Elridge Cleaver’s Soul on Ice to a program of Black music prepared by the class members. “The two objectives of the course are a better understanding of the Black race and more knowledge of the literature and culture it has to offer,” felt Rosenfeld. “Black Literature” has been successful in both of these goals. INFORMATIVE “The class informed me of things happening in the black world that | didn’t know about, books, newspapers, different thoughts all opened up to me,” said Tal Fauntleroy, a member of the class. Dalton Nicholson felt the true value of the course was his awareness of the black involvement and the exposure he received from other Blacks. Overlearning stressed Study habits are reevaluated DR. GEORGE WEIGAND By KATHY KOONCE Staff Writer How to study is one of the hardest problems a student needs to overcome. Realizing that many students had study problems, Dr. George Weigand originally published HOW TO SUCCEED IN HIGH SCHOOL in 1965. Now the book has recently been revised. Weigand said the original idea for the book came several years ago when he was teaching a study skills course. “Most students had basically the same problems,” he observed. The book is an accumulation of the kinds of questions that most students ask. Although the book is aimed for high school students some of the same problems carry over into college, he noted. Weigand had co-authored COL- LEGE ORIENTATION which was written to and for students. Weigand observed that the largest problem for the college freshman is the atmosphere of the class. “In high school there is a certain amount of participation, in college students sit in large lecture classes and listen. There are fewer tests and students allow work to pile up.” “The course has changed over the past couple of years,” said Rosenfeld, “the mood of the class seems to be the mood of the country at the time, it is always changing.” In many ways the member is for the most part a student, but when an opinion is expressed the student becomes a teacher. “| enjoyed the class because it was discovery learning, learning about a subject directly from the source,” said Chris Mills, “not second-hand knowledge like most of my classes.” The atmosphere of the class was very relaxed and led to interesting discussions concerning the situation of the black man in America. Issues such as discrimination in the public schools, blacks in the criminal system and ways to improve relations between blacks and the city of Greenville were all discussed. Weigand mentioned three areas which his book covers in regard to better grades with less time “not less effort.” First, is the budgeting of time. Second is the method of getting more material from the text. Third centers on how to take tests and examinations. Weigand emphasizes SQ3R, which means Survey, Question, Read, Write and Review. The book, written for high school students, is written in “plain ordinary everyday, conversational English.” Wei- gand believes that the instructor's job “is to communicate.” In COLLEGE ORIENTATION he states that it helps to “talk over information.” He has observed that this has been very helpful to nursing students at ECU. Sartor is the tailor made method of studying which he advises. S stands for scanning the material, A means ask questions, R. stands for reading. Talking over inform ation is represented by t. O means overlearn and finally R for review. To answer all the questions a student might have about studying Weigand suggests reading the book. He still thinks students should study for application and not for grades. “A degree is an indication of an education. Why go to class and end up with grades when you can end up with an education?” FOR Carolinas largest selection of rare old maps and engravings. THE ANTIQUARIAN PRINT - @n (GALLERY 5 503Dickinson 9-5Sat. As Jim Ingram pointed out, “While much of the tension of few years has eased in the black community, the problems discussed in class were very important and cannot be overlooked. There might not have been as much attention attached to them as in the past but they were still very valid and deserved much interest.” Because of the structure of the class, * Rosenfeld has taken the role of a student in the course, “I learn along with everyone else in the class, I’m educated by the students.” Food class offered by Home Ec An institute for personnel of school food services will be offered by ECU June 7-21. i The institute is sponsored by the ECU School of Home Economics and the ECU Division of Continuing Education in cooperation withthe N.C.

Time: Almost always the night. Char- acters: A beautiful but pale and distressed young woman; her concerned father and handsome lover; a knowledge- able, foreign professor; a well-meaning maid; aman-servant who acts as keeper of a lunatic; and finally, a sinister-looking, darkly-dressed neighbor by the name of Count Dracula. Combine all these elements and you have, quite obviously, DRACULA, the latest and last presentation of the East Carolina Playhouse for the current season, and also one of the most popular plays to hit Greenville in many a moon (no pun intended). Not that DRACULA has_- no faults. Basically, the vampire theme is so worn-out there is little innovation that has not already been thought of at one time or the other. | must admit, though, thatthe use of the airplane by the Count in transporting his “life-giving” boxes of earth from Transylvania to England is a novel twist, and definitely brings the old horror story into the twentieth century. And Friday night, as | sat for my second night in a row and viewed the gory death of the infamous Count, | felt a definite affection for him as the familiar delicious chill crept over the audience. Perhaps the current interest in mystical occults or supernatural forces (witness the sensational success of “The Exorcist”) accounts, at least partly, for the enthusiastic reception of this updated stage version by Hamilton Deane and John L. Balderston. At any rate, the latest question around campus seems to be, “Did you see DRACULA?” Melodrama, laced with horror and bathos, never had it so good. True, there were some parts in the long (around two and a half hours) supernatural classic that seemed a bit tedious, and at times, | think the audience was ahead of the show, especially when explanations of well-known vampire facts were unduly detailed. However, the play, with its stilted, measured, heavily accented speech, organ grinding, and high-pitched, nasal, oohing and aahing at climatic moments, showed that horror can very well be transformed into soap opera, netting a touch of comedy with the transformation There is much praise to be given to many people. Director Don Biehn, set designer Robert T. Wi'tiams, and lighting manager William Devins, together produced a mood. of alternating satirical-suspenseful-soap-operaness. Organ music by Lee Hendricks and the amplified background music of McCall Thompson and Janice Vertucci, though not exactly “Tubular Bells’, effectively combined with such sounds effects as howling dogs (the wolves were about), bats batting through the air, a pistol shot, and a thunderstorm, to enhance a mystic mood. All of the characters rendered good Gothic performances, but | think Terry Pickard's portrayal of R.M. Renfield, the wild-eyed, wild-haired, crouching, cring- ing madman in DRACULA deserves special recognition. Pickard’s performance, as noted by The Daily Reflector, was “a fine mixture of babbling nonsense and sudden outbursts of sanity.” His agility was Continuing Events CINEMA: PARK: May 19-21 “Black Six” May 15-18 “Hong Kong Connection” Professional football stars try their talents at acting in this “Super Fly” take off.

Judy Townsend as Lucy Seward, the beautiful, unfortunate victim of the dreadful DRACULA, staged a stunning transformation from a pale, pure maiden to a passionate, provocative “servant of the Master.” Robert Beard, as Abraham Ven Helsing, the cranky old Dutch professor, and Martin Thompson posing as the troubled Dr. Seward, rendered better-than- average performances, even though they were at times forced to speak lines that seemed a bit trite. For example, near the bloody climax, Professor Van Helsing said the the Count: “Thirty seconds until sunrise.” The Count calmly — repiied, “Thank you for reminding me of the time.” Russell Chesson really bit into his role as the infamous Count (pardon the corn) and Rodney Freeze was properly pathetic as the lover of the tortured Lucy. Barbara Richardson was good, for.a couple of laughs as the saucy little maid, and John Newsome, the badgered Butterworth, with an Irish brogue futilely attempted to keep the possessed Renfield confined, much to the audience’s amusement For those who missed this ‘Dark Shadows” type rendition of the familiar, famous old horror story, | can only offer heart-felt sympathy. And oh, be sure to wear your wolf's fang or The Cross, for The Count will undoubtedly rise again. HYDRA HITS GREENVILLE The country-flavored rock group Hydra which performed at the Attic last Thursday night has just released their first album on the CAPRICORN RECORDS label. The group, which hails from Atlanta, has built up quite a reputation for themselves in the Southeast and their performance Thursday night certainly did nothing but increase this following. One of the finest groups ever to appear at the Attic, Greenville was certainly fortunate in catching the band before they hit it big nationally. If the -group’s new album possesses the same professionalism as their performance at the Attic displayed, it electric. Located off E. 10th St. One block from 5th--10th intersection Kings Row Apartments One and two bedroom garden type apartments with wall-to-wall shag carpet, drapes, color-coordinated appliances, dishwasher, garbage disposal, decorator selected wall coverings, walk in closets, totally ‘Fit for a king’ should not be long before they join the Allman Brothers, Lynard Skynard, and Marshall Tucker at the top of the country-rock totem pole. RECORDS Looking Thru: Passport Atlantic Records By JED Passport is a new group to the American popular music scene, Led by blue-eyed, fair-haired Klaus Dolinger, the group has attained an enormous following in their native Germany. The group specializes in the newest fad on the pop circuit today, instrumentalized rock-folk. This sound that Passport displays is performed with such excellence that their sound places them on a level with such similarly-styled, big name artists as Focus, Mike Oldfield, Bo Hanson, and Yes. Now a collection of titles has been released in the United States. The package, entitled “Looking Thru’, contains eight of the group’s electronically instrumentalized pieces. As the listener becomes engrossed in these pieces it becomes more apparent the role which Doldinger plays in the group. Not only is Doldinger the acknowiedg- ed leader of the,group, but his musical talents are the framework for the, quartet's high-keyed, electric approach. » , In addition to his playing contributions (tenor and soprano sax, moog, electric piano, and mellotron) Doldinger composes all of the group's music. From these compositions the group’s other three members: Wolfgang Schmid, bass and lead guitar; Curt Crees, percussion; and Kristian Schutz, piano and organ; exercise their talents by improvising from Doldinger's main themes. The resulting sound is as pleasing and enthralling as any piece performed by the more established acts. Through listening several times to this album, it is easy to see how this group has become so popular in Europe. The electronic sound that this group displays has not yet reached its zenith in the United States, but with airplay and the proper promotion Passport could help to skyrocket the sound. To borrow one of the themes from the album, the group is Ready for Take Off.” 752-3519 6 FOUNTAINHEAD/VOL. 5, NO. 54/14 MAY 1974 Ediforials/Commentory = Last time around An SGA story =o This is my last editorial as editor-in-chief of Fountainhead. ; var " | won't hide it .
